November is an interesting time to shop at Costco. You\u2019re inclined to start stocking up for the holiday festivities. But if you\u2019re anything like me, your precious and dwindling storage space is desperately begging you to hold off. Do yourself (and your overstuffed pantry) a favor and hold off on the Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner fixins, and get a few fun new Costco products in the meantime! You\u2019ll just have to go back to Costco in a few weeks and\u2014oh shucks, what\u2019s that? I get to grab another<\/em> hot dog combo on that next trip? Darn, the horror! Anyway, here are the best things to buy at Costco this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n
Kellogg\u2019s Squishmallows Cereal<\/strong><\/a><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

When it comes to gimmicky products, I typically keep my expectations low\u2014especially when it comes to cereal. Still, this cereal is pretty perfect for parents to buy for their Squishmallow-loving kids. It’s apparently a lot like Lucky Charms\u2014frosted cereal pieces mixed with crunchy little marshmallows\u2014and there’s nothing wrong with that (besides the obvious: Why aren’t the marshmallows squishy??). The last thing you want is a tantrum in the morning when your kids don\u2019t like eating the breakfast you cooked for them. Just give in and serve them what they really want: A bowl of sugary cereal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coconut Chocolate Pocky<\/strong><\/a><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

Sometimes, the best things to buy at Costco are those products that just <\/em>missed what you’d think would be their target season, like the time they released a dreamsicle-inspired dessert at the end of summer<\/a>. They\u2019re at it again with this tropical Pocky that would have been a perfect complement to a coconut cocktail. Instead, these Coconut Chocolate Pocky\u2014one of Sporked<\/em>\u2019s favorite Pocky flavors<\/a>\u2014are one of the best things to buy at Costco in chilly November. Who woulda thunk it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kirkland Maple Butter Pecan Bar Cake<\/strong><\/a><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

Okay, and now for a highly<\/em> seasonally appropriate Costco treat: Kirkland Maple Butter Pecan Bar Cake. Maple and pecan are two flavors you simply can\u2019t get enough of during fall and winter, so this cake seems like a no brainer to add to your list of what to buy at Costco in November. It’s made of vanilla sponge, a maple flavored buttercream mousse, and a layer of pecan praline. Insane. Bring it to a gathering and pass it out, or keep it in your fridge and slowly chisel away at it until your next trip back to Costco. You kind of can’t go wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heritage Specialty Foods Lasagna Soup<\/strong><\/a><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

Now this<\/em> is a winter dinner. It comes refrigerated and you get two pouches of lasagna soup in a box. It’s got those good crinkly noodles, beef, Italian sausage, in a tomatoey base. It seems like the kind of stuff that could warm you up enough to save some money on your heating bill. I can hear thermostat-obsessed dads everywhere rushing out to Costco as we speak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Royal Asia Thai Fried Bananas<\/strong><\/a><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

I really don\u2019t like frying anything in my kitchen. I also don\u2019t have a recipe handy for Thai fried bananas in coconut and sesame seed batter. So I truly lucked out with this next new Costco product to pick up this month. It\u2019s just icing on the cake that these bananas come with both a coconut cream sauce and a caramel honey sauce all in one easy box in the frozen aisle of Costco. They really thought of everything\u2014but don’t forget the vanilla ice cream<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n\n\n\n\n\n

East Coast Seafood Lobster Sliders<\/strong><\/a><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

So your favorite tiny shack by the sea closed up shop for the winter? Don\u2019t worry, Costco\u2019s got you covered. These sliders may be tiny in stature but every last ounce of them is carefully crafted to blast your brain with flavor. Brioche slider rolls are filled with lobster meat <\/a>and a heaping serving of lobster butter so you don\u2019t have to go digging around your spice cabinet to add anything extra. Just heat it up and scarf it down in .5 seconds.<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n\n\n\n\t\t

La Boulangerie Smoked Ham & Swiss Cheese Pockets<\/strong><\/a><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

I\u2019m a sucker for convenience and it doesn\u2019t get much more convenient than this. And I really mean it. This box comes with six (!) sets of cooking instructions\u2014so you can kind of heat them however you want. Then comes the price. Are you kidding me?! A ham and cheese croissant would cost me what a whole box of eight of these beauts cost at Costco. <\/p>\n<\/dd>\n\n\n\n<\/dl>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
